I see the symptoms in these folks. They are addicted to dRump. dRump works like a stimulant and hes a depressant.
You can talk until you are blue in the face about the poor effects dRump will have on them but they wont listen. This is something that will make them feel good. They get a high when dRump talks. They get their dRump hits every time he makes the news. Never mind that its bad for their health. Never mind that its ruining the quality of their lives. Never mind that its causing rifts in their relationships with friends or family. Their unpredictable outbursts on Facebook or Twitter will supplant all forms of logical thinking. These voters are pulling away from society and abandoning their responsibilities. These addicts will not admit that a they have a dTrump addition. We need support groups for these people. We need interventions for these people. We mustnt let up the fight against this epidemic or we will all lose.

(3,145 posts)Trump's election ripped the lid off the proverbial Pandora's Box and gave them license to openly hate. That sort of freedom is intoxicating. They know that the demographic shift is not in their favor and that at some point they will be outnumbered and outvoted a la California which that scares the fecal matter out of them. To these folks Trump is a breath of fresh air and their own Joan of Arc to lead them to victory over the forces of multiculturalism and political correctness.
We see them as a dangerous annoyance, they see us as no less than a hostile enemy that needs to be destroyed at any cost. This is why they support any Trump initiative no matter how blatantly unconstitutional it is. . .in their minds any loss of rights now is a necessary evil in the battle for (white Christian) America's very soul.
